Harvest Festival

Every October, Fuller puts on a Harvest Festival. It's a great event for families with kids, but fun for adults too. There are tons of games, tons of candy, and even pony rides! Homemade Korean BBQ is always served (if you've never tried it, it's soooo delicious) along with lots of other carnival food (hotdogs, popcorn, nachos, cotton candy, etc.). Noel and I were required to work at the event as part of our community coordinator position. We opted for the hot cider booth, which I think was definitely the easiest (the cider didn't even come close to comparing to Michigan cider though...it was a bit disappointing). Noel also ended having to play the guitar for an hour on the "hayride" (2 horses pulling a wagon around a city block). We had a great time!

I met up with Cynthia, Shannon, and Michelle. We were all financial aid counselors together when I first started working at Fuller. Shannon is the only one who is still in the office, but now the Assistant Director rather than a counselor. Cynthia's working on becoming a nurse and Michelle just started a PhD program in clinical psychology here at Fuller. It was great to reconnect with them!
